More quotes by Nellie L. McClung
Every season of life has its compensations.
Nellie L. McClung

Nellie L. McClung
People must know the past to understand the present, and to face the future.

thought without expression is dynamic and gathers volume by repression. Evolution when blocked and suppressed becomes revolution.
Nellie L. McClung

Nellie L. McClung
War is a crime committed by men and, therefore, when enough people say it shall not be, it cannot be.
Nellie L. McClung
Never underestimate the power of a woman.
Nellie L. McClung
By nice women . . . you probably mean selfish women who have no more thought for the underprivileged, overworked women than a pussycat in a sunny window for the starving kitten in the street. Now in that sense I am not a nice woman, for I do care.
Nellie L. McClung
I am one of those irritating people, who hang on to the door-knob after they say good-bye, and will neither come back nor go, always remembering something else which must be said.
Nellie L. McClung
Women are going to form a chain, a greater sisterhood than the world has ever known.
Nellie L. McClung
